[188 Pages Report] Plastic processing is a method through which the polymers in the form of granules, pellets, sheets, preforms, fluids, and powders are converted into formed parts, shapes, and components using a rigid frame called matrix or mold. Polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, polyethylene terephthalate, polycarbonate, and polyamides are commonly used polymers for producing plastic parts. The polymers that are used in plastic molding technologies to create plastic parts and components are considered as molded plastics.
The molded plastics market size is estimated to reach USD 475,866.9 million by 2023 from USD 364,134.6 million in 2016, at a CAGR of 6.2% between 2018 and 2023. The molded plastics market was 240,166.4 kilotons in 2017, and is projected to register a CAGR of 3.8% between 2018 and 2023. Its applications in the packaging industry mainly drive the molded plastics market. Molded plastics are used to produce cans, bottles, containers, and packaging films. These products are widely used as packaging media for food & beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, and industrial products. Changing packaging patterns, increasing disposable income, improving lifestyles, and increasing per capita expenditure on food & beverage are the key factors that are expected to drive the molded
The packaging segment is expected to be the largest and fastest-growing application, in terms of value, during the forecast period. The growth of the segment is mainly attributed to the increasing demand for alternatives to packaging materials, such as metals and glass. Flexibility in design, chemical and moisture resistance, lightweight, and low cost of molded plastics are expected to drive its consumption in the packaging application. Molded plastics are used to produce cans, containers, bottles, and packaging films that are used in food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. Such attributes are expected to drive the growth of the segment. Construction & infrastructure is expected to be the second-largest application segment in the molded plastics market during the forecast period. The increasing consumption of molded plastics in high-tech agriculture technologies, such as irrigation systems, mulching, and greenhouses, is expected to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.
Polyethylene is estimated to be the largest segment of the molded plastics market, in terms of value, during the forecast period. It is processed through various molding technologies, such as extrusion, injection molding, blow molding, and rotational molding, to produce plastic parts for applications in the packaging, construction, automotive, and electronics & electrical industries. Polyethylene is preferred in the uses mentioned above, owing to its abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, flexibility, and excellent low-temperature toughness.
APAC is estimated to be the largest and fastest-growing market for molded plastics, in terms of value, during the forecast period. China dominates the molded plastics market in this region. The market in the region is mainly characterized by the presence of the leading molded plastics producers. APAC is the manufacturing hub for the automotive, chemical, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, and personal care industries. This is expected to fuel the demand for molded plastics. The industrial growth in India, Japan, and the ASEAN countries is also expected to boost the molded plastics market in the region. The market in North America is mainly characterized by the presence of the leading molded plastics producers. The producers in the region are focusing on the expansion of their production capacities, to leverage the low production costs due to the abundance of raw materials.
Agriculture is another major application of molded plastics. The increasing demand for plastics from this sector is expected to drive the molded plastics market. The increasing use of plastics in this sector has helped farmers to enhance crop production and improve food quality.
The commonly used molded plastics in the agriculture application include PE, PP, PVC, and PET. These plastics are used in greenhouses, tunnels, mulching, reservoirs and irrigation systems, silage, fitting and spray cones, and nets that are used to shade the interior of a greenhouse. Plastic irrigation pipes that are produced from PVC help in the prevention of wastage of water and nutrients. Reservoirs built with plastics help in the retention of rainwater. Greenhouses and mulching help in reducing the use of pesticides by keeping crops within a closed space. Vegetables including watermelon and asparagus are cultivated efficiently by using plastic tunnels.
Crude oil, natural gas, and naphtha are prominent feedstocks used in the production of primary petrochemicals, which are, in turn, used as raw material for the production of different types of molded plastics.
Plastic compounders further process resins and then used by formulators to manufacture plastic parts that are used in the packaging, automotive, and construction industries. Hence, the price changes in crude oil directly affect the prices of molded plastics, due to which the costs get spread across the entire value chain of the molded plastics market. The fluctuating feedstocks prices have a direct impact on the profitability and scalability of molded plastics suppliers, which was evident during the fall of crude oil prices from 2014, until recently.
Molded plastics are organic polymers that are processed in different ways by using various molding technologies. By selecting the specific molding process, raw materials, additives and operating properties, such as formability, elasticity, hardness, rigidity, chemical and heat resistance, can be varied as per the required application. Molded plastics are economical and lighter than their alternative materials, for instance, metals, and are therefore preferred in commercial and industrial applications. They are mostly derived from fossil sources, such as crude oil, natural gas, and naphtha. The environmental impact of the petroleum-based molded plastics on the ecosystem has impelled the development of bio-based plastics.
Bioplastics cover an extensive range of materials. The first-generation bioplastics were derived from traditional renewable and agricultural resources, such as soybeans, corn, and sugar cane. The second-generation sources shifted from food to non-food renewable sources, such as hemp, sawdust, switchgrass, and castor beans, as well as the byproducts of first-generation feedstocks that include peels and husks. The third-generation sources include modified methanobacteria and algae. Research is also underway to develop new resources for bioplastics.
Molded plastics are used to manufacture products for the applications in packaging, automobile, building & construction, and agriculture industries. These products are preferred in these industries owing to their low weight, durability, high strength-to-weight ratio, resistance to shock, and low toxicity. This, in turn, has fueled the demand for plastic products. However, their present levels of usage have generated huge waste disposal resulting in several environmental problems. Plastic products, when disposed of and released into the environment, release harmful chemicals in the form of pollutants. These pollutants mainly include compounds, such as benzene and dioxins, and heavy metals, such as lead and cadmium. These chemicals and heavy metals release harmful toxins into the environment.
